What’s good mishkalos, juggalos, juggahaters, and everything in between? ‘Tis I Kev Buc, coming at you with some interesting tid bits for your tits from this past week concerning all things in the realm of horrorcore and juggalos.

First up is a quick review of the demented duo themselves Twiztid’s Slaughterhouse Tour which kicked off February 18th in Buffalo, New York. I hit up two dates on this tour including one the following week in Clifton Park, New York. I felt this tour was one of the best stage shows I’ve seen them put on ever. I myself have seen Twiztid in concert dozens and dozens of times, dating back to when they first formed and were part of the Juggalo Funhouse Tour with ICP back in 1998. They had a lot of energy, a good stage set, and a really good variety of classics both old and new. The show opened with an up and coming rapper from the Bay Area, California known as Kung Fu Vampire. KFV has never worked with Psychopathic Records before, but was well received at the shows I attended. His sound is pretty unique and he has a full band. Read more at Mishka Bloglin…

Every summer for the past 10 years, there’s been a Gathering of the Juggalos. Novi, Mich.; Pataskala, Ohio; Cave-In-Rock, Ill.: they’ve all had a turn hosting the event, organized by Psychopathic Records, the Michigan-based label of the shock rap group Insane Clown Posse, purveyors of fully committed white working-class kabuki.

Mainstream media occasionally drop by for a visit, but for the most part this event, central to one of the last true subcultural scenes in America, is unjustly ignored, despite drawing several thousand people. These fans, known as Juggalos, refer to themselves collectively as “family.”

More like fam-uh-lee, actually, which is what the crowd was chanting, repeatedly, at B. B. King Blues Club & Grill on Monday night during a performance by Twiztid, one of the most established and best acts in the Juggalo universe.

Here, half a country away from the Juggalo core, at least two-thirds of the crowd was wearing a Twiztid shirt or one from the group’s label, Psychopathic. Despite the photocopied “No Moshing” signs pasted up around the room, plenty tried. Face paint was abundant. Some went further, doing up their looks with mutant makeup that would have made Roger Corman proud. Read more at NYTimes.com…

Ninja vs. Vampire?

Ninja vs. Vampire?Where to begin? More than a novelty band, but likewise not married to the conventions of either goth or hip-hop, Kung Fu Vampire mixes a savage sound and a stark sense of whimsy into something that is very much itself. Take, for example, the song “Vampire,” where a rapper launches into an explosion of hard-laced rhyme while a keyboardist evokes the feel of a gothic organ while an operatic female vocalist fills a bridge with something out of a B-movie fright fest. And it all works. It really shouldn’t, but it does.
